For key business links such as berths, quayside crane management, storage yards, and stowage scheduling in ports, key technologies such as intelligent terminal machinery and digital twin integrated production time-space management and control systems are used to carry out automatic ship stowage, automatic operation paths and berth plans. Scenario applications such as optimization, coordinated scheduling of horizontal transport vehicles and new rail transit equipment, and intelligent yard location selection will form intelligent solutions covering terminal operation, operation monitoring and equipment health management, and create a world-class super-large intelligent port.

(3) Smart mines.

In response to the high-quality and safe development of mines in my country, focus on underground mines and open-pit mines, and use a new generation of autonomous and controllable information technologies such as artificial intelligence, 5G communications, and basic software to build underground mines with “digital network connectivity, unmanned operation, intelligent inspection, remote The normalized operation of "intervention" to demonstrate the mining face, carry out the demonstration application of unmanned operation of open-pit mine trucks and the cooperative autonomous operation of shovel and load, and reduce personnel and replace personnel through intelligent technology, so as to comprehensively improve the intrinsic safety level of my country's mining industry.

(4) Smart factories.

Aiming at key business links such as production scheduling, parameter control, and equipment health management in process manufacturing and discrete manufacturing factories, the comprehensive use of factory digital twin, intelligent control, optimization decision-making and other technologies enables intelligent decision-making in the production process, flexible manufacturing, and large-scale equipment. Energy consumption optimization, intelligent equipment diagnosis and maintenance, etc., have formed intelligent factory solutions with industry characteristics that can be replicated and promoted, and have been demonstrated and applied in key industries such as chemical industry, steel, electric power, and equipment manufacturing.

(5) Smart home.

For the personalized and intelligent needs of home appliances, diet, escort, and health management in future family life, use cloud-side intelligent decision-making and active services, scene engines and adaptive perception and other key technologies to strengthen active reminders, intelligent recommendations, health management, Comprehensive demonstration applications such as smart zero operation promote the realization of whole-house integrated intelligent control coverage ranging from single-product intelligence to whole-house intelligence, from passive control to active learning, and compatible development of various smart products.

(6) Intelligent education.

Aiming at the key links of "preparation, teaching, training, testing, and management" in youth education, use key technologies such as learning cognitive state perception, smart learning and smart classrooms to teach in different places without perception, and build intelligent education that integrates virtual reality and supports cross-platform. Basic environment, focusing on primary and secondary schools in underdeveloped areas, supporting the development of intelligent education demonstration applications, improving the coverage of high-quality educational resources, and helping rural revitalization and the implementation of the national education digitalization strategy.

(7) Autonomous driving.

In response to the further expansion of autonomous driving from specific roads to conventional roads, key technologies such as high-accuracy environmental perception and over-the-horizon information sharing through fusion of vehicle-end and road-end sensors, and collaborative decision-making and control of vehicle-road-cloud integration are used to develop intersections. Demonstration and application of autonomous driving scenarios under complex driving conditions such as roundabouts, ramps, etc., to promote the development of scenarios such as expressway unmanned logistics, high-level autonomous vehicles, intelligent networked buses, and autonomous valet parking.

(8) Intelligent diagnosis and treatment.

For common diseases, chronic diseases, frequently-occurring diseases and other needs for diagnosis and treatment, based on the large-scale construction of database knowledge bases in the medical field, large-scale medical artificial intelligence model training and other intelligent medical infrastructure, the use of artificial intelligence can provide evidence-based diagnosis and treatment decision-making key medical technology, establish artificial intelligence A new model of intelligent empowerment of medical services. Focus on county-level hospitals to improve the level of primary medical services.

(9) Smart Court.

For litigation services, trial enforcement, judicial management and other court business areas, use key technologies such as unstructured text semantic understanding, judgment reasoning analysis and reasoning, and intelligent risk identification to strengthen automatic generation of court transcripts, intelligent push of similar cases, and intelligent decision-making for the entire case. The application demonstration of intelligent scenarios such as assistance, automatic generation of judgment documents, adaptive inspection of case files, and automatic trial quality and efficiency evaluation and supervision can effectively resolve conflicts between many cases and few cases, and promote the modernization of the trial system and trial capacity.

(10) Intelligent supply chain.

For key links such as intelligent warehousing, intelligent distribution, and cold chain transportation, use key technologies such as human-computer interaction, logistics robotic arm control, reverse customization, demand forecasting and after-sales tracking to optimize scenario-driven intelligent supply chain algorithms to build intelligent and efficient. , coordinated supply chain system, promote the large-scale application of intelligent logistics and supply chain technology, improve product inventory turnover efficiency, and reduce logistics costs.

3. Organization and implementation

The Ministry of Science and Technology takes the achievements of the national science and technology plan projects as the main basis and the national new-generation artificial intelligence innovation and development pilot zone as the main support, gives full play to the role of the national new-generation artificial intelligence open innovation platform enterprise, and selects a number of demonstration application scenarios to support the construction.

All local science and technology departments (commissions, bureaus) and pilot areas recommend to the Ministry of Science and Technology the demonstration application scenarios to be supported for construction.
